my first amp build went with the noisy cricket.
the amp sounds great but when I try to turn the tone
clockwise about a 1/4 of turn the amp will cut in/out
get real fuzzy sounds not playable at all. also not
sure if related but the grit switch has very little if any affect
on the sound but the gain works fine.
I built this with the radioshack board and parts.
